1984 CJ-8 Restomod Scout axles 4 wheel disks, 258, ax15, D300.
There is a whole forum about convertng this motor into just about everything. A few Jeeps have been done also. It is a little heavy at 785 pounds wet but that doesn't seem to crazy. With 200hp and 500 ft/lbs of torque the numbrs are nice for wheeling. Anyone have experience with this motor? I had a 6bt in my bobtail when I was in the air force and it was awesome.
 
I think it would be an awesome idea. I don't know how the frame would hold up, that is a lot of torque for those frames.
